[j-nsp] download.juniper.net mime types

[Jared Mauch]

Actually the problem is that many people don't think you might download with http from a non-browser, etc....

This means you end up with links that require JavaScript to navigate to them. If you can't download the software with links or lynx then there is a problem. I would take the ability to download directly to the device as a good second option even, as they tend to be better connected than some office networks.
